Can I use this for specific languages like Rust or Python?

Yes, the skill includes built-in knowledge of technology-specific conventions for Rust, JavaScript, Python, and other major ecosystems.

Is this skill compatible with monorepos?

Yes, it features a specialized mono-repo strategy that organizes projects level-by-level, from the root shared resources down to individual package directories.

Does this skill automatically move my code files without permission?

No, the skill follows a strict proposal-first workflow where it presents a detailed move plan for your approval before executing any changes.

Will moving files break my project's imports or build scripts?

Declutter identifies when moves require code updates and delegates those tasks to specialized skills like 'refactor' or 'devops' to ensure project integrity.

How does it handle Git history during reorganization?

The skill uses 'git mv' for all tracked files to ensure that version control history is preserved and file tracking remains continuous.

Productivity & Workflow

Organizes messy project repositories by identifying misplaced files and implementing standardized directory structures following open-source best practices.

The Declutter skill is designed to transform disorganized codebases into clean, professional environments by enforcing a 'hand-sized' project root and predictable directory patterns. It automates the assessment of project bloat, categorizes files into logical groups like scripts, documentation, and configuration, and provides a comprehensive move plan. By delegating complex tasks like code refactoring and CI/CD updates to specialized sub-skills, it ensures that project reorganization is both architecturally sound and safe to execute without breaking dependencies.
